A/N: Yeah... I'm into Steven Universe... it's best summed up by Neodusk's comic fandumb particularly #41, although I got back into it not too long after On the Run... Anyways this idea popped into my head during the last couple weeks... For those that don't know I was sick for a couple weeks, and because I was sick in bed not writing anything else this wouldn't leave my head so I had to write it.
Anyways for continuity it takes places after Joy Ride for Steven Universe and for the others I won't say for now, but I will evidently reveal it. Also this will be an AU for Steven Universe as it will ignore everything after Joy Ride (expect for the episodes that were meant to air before Jail Break... and Say Uncle which will be mentioned at least once... even though it's not canon) Anyways enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Steven Universe, Fairy Tail, One Piece or Naruto if I did then Say Uncle wouldn't have happened... well until I had Steven Universe crossover with those anime!
Happy: But Emma owns Any OC that might pop into this story
Emma: What are you doing here? You're not in fic... maybe a cameo or a flash back but not the story proper...
Happy: WHAT! Oh come on!
Project Conversion
By Emma Iveli
Chapter 1: A Mage, a Pirate and a Ninja
Deep in the reached of space, a lone Gem Ship flew. It was shaped like a hand like many ships but this one was decorated with many this ones it. The three things that were painted on was a strange emblem that resembled a fairy with a tail, a skulk and crossbones that wore a hat and a spiral that looked sort of like a leaf.
Not only that but the name of the ship was painted on: Forest Fairy.
In the cockpit a gem with orange skin, short orange hair wearing a dark orange tank top and a dark orange skirt with rings on the side. Her gem was on her left shoulder and was an oval citrine. Instead of having a diamond on her clothes there was that skull and bones on her tank top.
She was using the keypad to listen to transmissions from the Gem Home world. She had just finished listening to one.
She went over to a microphone.
"Hey I have some interesting news…" said the gem.
After a few minutes two other gems showed up.
One had milky white skin with long white hair that had her bangs up in a little ponytail. She wore a light pink sundress with the strange fairy logo on it and her gem was a milky quartz gem square on her chest.
The other also had white skin but there was more of a sheen to it, she had long lavender hair and wore a lavender hoody and white pants along with a strange thing around her neck with a metal plate with the spiral leaf on it. Her gem was a circle on the back of her left hand and was a white moonstone.
"Are they attacking any of our planets?" asked the one with white hair.
"Thankfully no." sighed the orange gem, "But apparently they tried to redo they're plans on a planet called earth but they hit some road bumps."
"What?" asked the one with lavender hair.
"Well apparently thousands of years ago that planet was the site of a civil war and apparently the survivors are on that planet." Said the orange one.
"Oh maybe we can join them." Said the white one.
"Are you sure that a good idea?" asked the lavender one, "What if they won't accept us."
"Don't worry I have a perfect plan." Said the white one.
"And if it doesn't work we'll probably have to fight." Sighed the orange one.
"Don't worry it will be fine." Said the lavender one.
"That's easy for you two to say." Muttered the orange one.
"All right do you think you can get us to earth?" asked the white one.
"It will take a few days, but I'll get us there." Said the orange one, "I was the best Navigator on the grand line after all."
The other two nodded, hoping when they got the planet nothing bad will happen.
Days later in the fair little town of Beach City. Steven was bored.
He stared at the TV.
"Hey Steven is anything wrong?" asked Amethyst.
"I can watch TV again but there's nothing on!" said Steven.
"Yeah, that happens." Said Amethyst, "Hey you want to finally check out Lil' Butler?"
"No thanks." Sighed Steven.
That was when everything began to shake.
"What's going on?" asked Steven.
That was when the temple doors opened and Garnet and Pearl emerged.
"There's something outside!" said Garnet.
She began to look into the future.
"What is it?" asked Steven.
"Another Gem Ship is coming." She muttered darkly.
All of them went outside and saw the gem ship coming.
However they noticed something strange about, not only about the marking but instead of coming in pointing it was holding something.
All of them stared at it.
"Is that…" said Amethyst.
"It is." Said Pearl not knowing how to react.
"It's a white flag." Said Garnet.
"Wait… does that mean they're coming in peace?" asked Steven.
On the ship both the orange one and the lavender one stared at the white flag the ship was holding.
"This seems like a really stupid idea." Mumbled the orange one to herself.
The white one began to cry having heard the remark.
"I didn't mean it like that." Said the orange one.
Back on Earth the Crystal Gems stood on the beach.
"Do you think it's all a ploy?" asked Pearl.
"I don't know I kind of like their ship." Said Steven looking though a telescope, "Oh cool it even has a name!"
"What let me see!" said Amethyst.
She saw the name painted on.
"Forest Fairy? Who names a ship that." Said Amethyst.
"That's strange." Said Pearl.
Soon enough the ship landed.
It opened up to reveal the three gems, all three of them had the white flags well. The Crystal Gems didn't know what to do.
"Don't worry we come in peace." Said the white one, "My name is Mirajane Strauss and these are my friends Nami and Hinata Hyuga."
"Wait…" said Pearl.
"Those sounds like human names." Said Amethyst.
"Wait are you half human too?" asked Steven.
"Wait… half human too…" said the orange one who was named Nami.
The lavender one who was named Hinata whispered "Byakugan!" to herself as her eyes strangely bulged.
"No way…" whispered Hinata.
"What is it?" asked Mirajane.
"He's half human, half gem." Said Hinata.
"It looks like we have a lot to talk about." Said Mirajane with a bright smile.
Not too long later Steven was on the phone with the mayor.
"Don't worry, they seemed opt have come in peace." Said Steven, "They're planning on explaining everything..."
In the kitchen, the Crystal Gems stared at the three making tea.
Steven hung up his cellphone as Mirajane was making a pot of tea.
"Seriously why are you having tea?" asked Amethyst.
"Thank you for letting us make tea." Said Mirajane.
"No problem." Said Steven.
"Who are you exactly?" asked Pearl, "You're not normal gems."
The three became silent.
"Was Project Conversion a thing when you were at Home World?" asked Mirajane.
Pearl and Garnet looked at each other.
"Wait are you telling us…" said Pearl.
"Each one of one us were kidnapped and taken to the Home world." Said Mirajane, "I was taken because of how strong I am, Hinata because of her family's abilities and Nami because she is a survivor of something that very few have ever lived thorough."
"I never thought they would be desperate." Said Pearl.
"Project Conversion?" asked Steven.
"What's that?" asked Amethyst.
"Well you see…" said Peal she at Steven's bed and noticed a poster of a ninja, "Hypothetically let's say there's a planet of nothing but ninjas... The Home World Gems would have a hard time there…"
"The plan would be kidnap someone from the planet, and find a way top turn him into a gem and use them as weapon against their home planet." Explained Garnet.
"But they were cocky." Said Nami, "They automatically assumed that we would see it their way, Mira and Hinata managed to take a lot of them out."
"You were able to help." Said Mirajane.
Nami sighed.
"We all used to be human until the Gems did this to us." Said Mirajane.
"I guess you can't go back because of what they did." Said Pearl.
"I guess your friends and family would have saw you as freaks after that." Said Amethyst.
Both Mirajane and Nami began give a harsh glare at Amethyst.
"Don't you dare think that way about them." Muttered Mirajane.
"You don't know my crew." Said Nami.
"That's not why we're on the run." Said Hinata trying to defuse the situation, "It's best if don't explain it for now."
"So I take it you're from planets with humans." Said Pearl.
"Yep! Human planets." Said Mirajane calming down, "But there are other intelligent beings there too."
"Wait there are other planets with humans." Said Steven.
"For some reason there are a lot of planets with humans." Said Pearl.
"No one knows why." Said Garnet.
"Oh okay… I think I get it." said Steven, "So which one of you is from the Ninja planet?"
"Steven I was only using that a hypothetical." Said Pearl.
"Actually…" said Hinata raising her hand.
Steven's eyes sparkled.
"You're a ninja?" asked Steven, "Does that mean you walk on water and do that log thing!"
"I can." Said Hinata.
"Oh wow! Does that mean you two are ninjas too?" asked Steven.
"No we come from different planets." Said Mirajane, "I come from a world where some people can learn magic."
"Is it different than Gem Magic?" asked Steven.
"It is." Said Mirajane, "But I don't like using my full powers unless I have to."
"So you can't show off?" asked Steven.
"I can use other spell too." Said Mirajane, "I can transform."
"All gems can transform." muttered Amethyst.
"Is it like this?" asked Mirajane.
They were shocked as she appeared human, her skin tone was darker and her gem was gone.
"This is how I used to look when I was human." sad Mirajane.
"Wow!" said Steven with his eyes sparkling.
"I have a few other spells I can do with out using my full powers." Said Mirajane.
"What about you Nami?" asked Steven.
"I don't have any special powers." Said Nami, "But I used to be a pirate."
"Oh wow! Did you ever bury treasure?" asked Steven.
"No why would I do that?" said Nami, "But I've stolen loads of it."
"So that only leaves one question, why did you come to Earth?" asked Garnet.
"We've been on the run from the Gems for a few years now." Said Mirajane.
"And it would be nice to settle down." Said Hinata, "We're afraid that might happen if we all go home…"
"We want to live on Earth in peace." Explained Nami.
"And maybe help you if more gems show up." Said Mirajane.
"Gem Huddle!" said Garnet.
The there Crystal Gems huddled.
"Can we really believe them?" asked Pearl.
"They don't act like gems." Said Amethyst.
"We should be on guard around them." Said Garnet, "But for now I think we should give them a chance."
They turned to the three were now eating cookies with their tea.
"We'll going to give you a chance." Said Garnet.
"Thank you so much." Said Hinata giving a small bow.
"We understand if you don't trust us right away." Said Mirajane.
The Crystal Gems stared at them.
"Were you listening on the conversation." Said Pearl.
"No… it's just obvious what the conversation was about." Sighed Nami.
"Where are you going to stay?" asked Steven.
"Is it okay if we leave the Frost Fairy outside?" asked Nami, "It's been our home for the past few years."
"As long it doesn't cause any problems it should be fine." Said Garnet.
"By the way it looks like Ronaldo is trying to sneak on board." Said Amethyst.
"Oh man!" yelled Nami.
She ran out of the house and ran over yelling at Ronaldo.
"By the way, are tangerines native to this planet?" asked Mirajane.
"Yeah, why?" asked Steven.
"Oh just something we're planning." Said Mirajane.
"Just don't tell Nami, it's a surprise." Said Hinata.
They all watched as Nami began to chaise Ronaldo around on the beach. The Crystal Gems hoping that the three could be trust and the three "Converted" gems hoping that maybe they could finally settle down and stop running.
But only time would tell if they could earn their trust.
Next Time: The Crystal Gems teach the "Conversion" gems about the Earth and the gem monsters that sometimes attack. Will they be able to work together? Find out next time!
